San Francisco Giants RP Jeremy Affeldt was placed on the 15-day DL prior to their game with the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday. It was reported that Affeldt partially dislocated his kneecap while playing in a lake with his children.

Fantasy Impact:

Affeldt has been crowned the king off "weird off-field injuries" since he also cut his hand separating frozen hamburger patties in 2011 and sprained his MCL catching his toddler son from a jump in 2012. His fantasy value is minimal at this point as a middle reliever, although he is an important set-up man for the Giants.
